The Twin Cities Creation Science Fair association usually posts “random” photographs of the children’s exhibits on their web site after the fair is over. You can go and see them for the last few years. (Don’t look for a place to click on this post, I don’t provide it here.)

But this year, something different happened, and if you go to the site where the photographs are supposed to be posted, you get this:

Interesting, huh?

Now, to really get the context of this, you may need to read at least the blog post and the last six or so comments in a conversation going on here about home schooling.

I’m not going to even attempt to explain this. Comments? Suggestions? Information? Valium?

So, you’re saying they left this nastygram on their website just because you linked to their pictures in your blog? If so, then congrats! But seriously, is that the only reason, because that’s lame on their part.

Lance: I remember this discussion– that was the ONLY reason they did that–oh, and also that Greg didn’t share their view that the earth was created in seven days (or was it six?)
Nice to see this post alive and well;-)

My belief is that they took down the pictures because they were the same as my pictures, and they did not have any other pictures.

If you take all the known pictures of the event and count up the number of depicted exhibits, it is a fraction of what the organizers claimed were there. They got caught in a lie. A christian, creationist, homeschooling lie.

They needed to take the pictures down to cover their tracks, and they chose to blame me for the removal of the pictures, even though that makes no sense whatsoever.

About this blog

The science is mostly climate change, life science, evolution, and science education. The science policy and politics is mostly about climate change and the evolution-creationism false controversy. The technology is mostly about Linux, regular normal person computer use, kids programming, and now and then, household items.

As an Anthropologist and Africanist, I often write about those topics as well.

Usually, I write about one or two topics for a while then shift to something different. This is not systematic, and has to do with context and external forces such as: Is this a presidential election year? Are we having an El Nino? Is there a fight going on somewhere about teaching creationism in a public school? Did I just get a cool new robot toy? Like that.

So, if you don't find the most recent few posts interesting, have a look at the topics below. But, of course, chances are you got here with a Google search and you'll never read this "about" thing.
